The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has frozen fixed deposits worth Rs 16.97 crore allegedly belonging to Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Anubrata Mondal and his family members in connection with a case of cattle smuggling across Indo-Bangladesh border, officials said on Wednesday, 17 August.
The agency detected the fixed deposits during its continuing probe in the case, they said.
The CBI on Wednesday visited Mondal's Nichupatti residence in Bolpur to question his daughter but left within 10 minutes after Sukanya refused to talk to them.
